Configure Proxy Settings for Partners
You can use the Proxy Settings tab to activate the proxy that BusinessConnect Container Edition uses as a default connection for any outgoing traffic with a specific trading partner.
To configure the proxy settings of a partner, perform the following steps:
- Procedure
-
On the Partners page, click the partner whose proxy settings you wish to configure.
-
On the Edit Partner page, click the Proxy Settings tab.
-
Select proxies using the information provided in the following table:
Selecting Proxy Settings for the Partner Field Description Proxy Servers Enable or disable the proxies using the toggle. Connection Defaults If the proxies are disabled, no proxy can be used regardless of any selections in the proxy list or in the System Settings > Outbound Protocols > Proxy Servers.
Note: For SMTP, even if a TIBCO BusinessConnect Container Edition user disables the use of proxy for a specific trading partner, the system level SMTP proxy can still be used to send email.If the proxies are enabled and a proxy is selected from the list, the selected proxies are used for this partner: the default system settings is overridden.
Using the Default option from the list means that BusinessConnect Container Edition uses the proxy defined under System Settings > Outbound Protocols > Proxy Servers.
Therefore, if the proxy is not specified on the partner level, the BusinessConnect Container Edition user indicates that there is no preference, and whatever is defined on the system level should be used for this trading partner.
